Lehman, Herbert H. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1977
Games which use dominoes, dice, and playing cards to promote computational skill are described. (SD)
Descriptors: Basic Skills, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics, Games

Ockenga, Earl; Duea, Joan – Arithmetic Teacher, 1976
Directions are given for games in which students can practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills. Patterns for spinners to be used in the games are provided. (DT)
Descriptors: Basic Skills, Elementary School Mathematics, Elementary Secondary Education, Games

Bruni, James V.; Silverman, Helene – Arithmetic Teacher, 1975
The authors describe several board games which can be made by the teacher and used to develop mathematical concepts (e.g. one-to-one correspondence) or reinforce basic skills. (SD)
Descriptors: Basic Skills, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics, Experiential Learning

Jensen, Linda R. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1976
Several classroom activities using sugar cubes, file cards, and other readily available objects are described. The author argues that use of such games can be used to foster mathematical creativity while strengthening computational skills. (SD)

Herrmann, Jeanne Throckmorton – Arithmetic Teacher, 1976
A series of card games is described for practicing basic skills. (DT)
Descriptors: Basic Skills, Educational Games, Elementary School Mathematics, Elementary Secondary Education

Lent, Barbara C. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1982
An approach to helping children learn mathematics facts that uses standard decks of cards is promoted. Teachers are warned that the methods outlined involve activities that can be noisy, but that pupils are learning while they are relaxing, laughing, and sharing in a good time with their friends. (MP)
